For many years, John Perkins was an economic hit man (EHM), a job he held to convince developing nations to accept enormous loans for infrastructure development and to guarantee that development projects were contracted to US corporations such as Halliburton and Bechtel. He was a direct participant or witness to such dramatic modern events as the Saudi Arabian Money Laundering scandal, the fall of the Shah of Iran, the assassination of Panama’s president Omar Torrijos and the Panama invasion, and other government and corporate intrigues leading to the 2003 invasion of Iraq. Now with both the global and domestic financial collapses, a strengthening of the corportacracy parallel to increasing rates of unemployment, homelessness, rising illness and disease and diminishing healthcare, John is in a unique position to provide comment and analysis since he contributed to these very same events in poorer nations.

After 911, John broke his silence with the publication of his international best seller “ Confessions of an Economic Hit Man.” Since then he has been a champion of Amazonian indigenous spiritual culture and environmental movements through his Dream Change and the Pachamama Alliance projects.

John’s latest book is “Hoodwinked: Former Economic Hit Man Reveals Why the World Financial Markets Imploded—and How to Remake Them”.

Neuroscientific advances in understanding the emotional life of the brain – how we think, feel and love, and how contemplative practice can change the brain from negative emotions

Prof. Richard Davidson is the William James and Vilas Research Professor of Psychology and Psychiatry, and holds the directorships of the Waisman Laboratory for Brain Imaging and Behavior, the Laboratory for Affective Neuroscience and the Center for Investigating Healthy Minds at the University of Wisconsin where he has been teaching since 1984. Prof. Davidson is regarded by many as a leading pioneer in the new discipline of brain research known as Affective Neuroscience. He is the recipient of numerous awards for his research into brain imaging and analysis including a National Institute of Mental Health Research Scientist Award, a Distinguished Investigator Award from the National Alliance for Research in Schizophrenia and Affective Disorders, and theWilliam James Fellow Award from the American Psychological Society. He is the past-President of the Society for Research in Psychopathology and of the Society for Psychophysiological Research and in 2003 was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Sciences. Time Magazine named Prof. Davidson as one of the 100 most influential people in the world. That is the science side of Prof. Davidson. However as a graduate student at Harvard during the mid 1970s, Richard made his first trip India to study meditation which has been a discipline he has practiced ever since. In 1992, at the insistence of His Holiness the Dalai Lama, he commenced to break away from standard brain research protocol, which had focused solely on mapping negative brain function such as in depression, stress and psychotic conditions, and instead focused on brain function of the positive emotions such as compassion, kindness, and happiness. After studying many of the most advanced meditators from India, Nepal and Bhutan who were brought to his university’s brain imaging laboratory, Prof. Davidson discovered evidence for the brain’s neuroplasticity enabling us to change our brains to become more resilient, attentive and aware that benefits both physical health and our emotional lives.
